Chapter 12

Cali

After what happened last night, naging awkward kami ni Donny. Nag amin siya sa akin na crush niya ko. Crush diba yan yung parang ginagawa mo inspiration or you're admiring him/her. Ako, inamin ko na din sa kanya. Crush namin ang isa't-isa. Pag breakfast namin kanina, he's just staring at me the whole time. Paano na ba to? Hindi ko muna siya kinausap kanina kasi parang na aw-awkward an pa ako. Now, I think they are preparing for the Ironman challenge. They're excited. Hannah for swimming, Tito A for biking and Ate Ella or Donny for running.

*donnypangilinan sent you a message*

   Hey! Kamusta ka na, crush?

Iqianiqoqkqoamamq yaw q na kinikilig na ko jusqqqqq

   Nabuang ka oy. Hahaha. I'm fine, Dons. Don't call me 'crush' kasi natatawa ako haha.

Donny : nabuang sa imo. We're heading to Ayala. You wanna come?

Me : No na. I'm a lil bit tired pa. Maybe next time na lang :)

Donny : I hope next time yung tayong dalawa lang? Am I too fast? Or should I make ligaw? Or what. What do u think?

Yoko na kinikilig na ko

Me : paalam ka muna sa mga magulang ko :p

Donny : yes. I will. Pagbalik nila, mag-papaalam ako. :)  btw, pupunta ka naman diba sa triathlon?

Me : No. Kidding. Yes, I will :) why?

Donny : Wala lang. Naks. You'll support me!!!

Me : Yes. I'll support you and your fam. Ate Ella will join?

Donny : Nah. Uuwi si Ate tomorrow. She's hoping that she will see you before siya aalis. May problema kasi sa business kaya she needs to go back.

Me : Awww. Tell her that we will meet tomorrow sa Airport!!!!

Donny : Sure :)

Hindi na ako nag reply kay Donny. I decided to fix my things at matutulog na lang ako kasi wala naman akong gagawin dito sa bahay plus sobrang pagod ko pa.

I woke up around 3:30 in the afternoon. Nakatulog ako for 4 hours. I checked my phone and I have a message from Ate Ella, Tita Maricel, Hannah and Donny.

Ate Ella : Hey!! Donny told me that we will meet before my flight. Thank you!!! See you tomorrow, Cal!! Love u

I told her that we will see each other tomorrow. I'll miss ate Ella. Sayang kasi she can't join the Triathlon.

Tita Maricel : Anak, thank you for inviting them last night. They really had fun. Let's bonding soon ha. :)

I also thank tita Maricel for allowing them last night

Hannah : Ate Cali, why are you not replying to kuya Dons? He's worried.

Hala. Oo nga pala. Nakalimutan ko na. Sobrang dami pala yung messages ni Donny. I texted him that i fell asleep at ayun lang. Parang wala kasi ako sa mood ngayon. My head is still aching at matutulog na lang ulit ako.

Airport

"Bye Ate Ella!! Balik ka dito sa Cebu ha! I'll miss you!" I said and I hugged her. "Iingatan mo si Donny ha." She whispered. I just laughed. Inantay muna namin si Ate Ella na makapasok sa may Departure.

"Saan tayo kakain?" Tita Maricel asked. "Zebuchon!!!" Hannah said. She's been craving for lechon since last week. Kahit lechon yung nakain namin last 2 days. "Tita, I heard masarap daw yung lechon dun." I said. Inakbayan lang ako ni Donny. Hindi na masyadong awkward kasi alam namin na gusto namin ang isa't-isa.

"Sige. Let's go?" Donny said. While we're waiting sa van, Donny carried Solana. "Ate Cali, you know what my baby brother told us last night that he likes you." Solana said. Luh. Nararamdaman ko na nagbublush ako. Ano ba to. Hindi na ako nakasagot dahil dumating na yung Van. Si tito A umupo sa tabi ng driver at sa likod naman tita Maricel, Hannah, Benj and Solana then sa likod nila kami lang dalawa ni Donny.

"Hey. I missed you." Donny said. Luh. Dalawang araw lamg kami di nag kita miss niya na ako kaagad. Hihihihi kilig si acquoeeee.

"Baliw. Dalawang araw lang tayo di nag kita." I said. Inakbayan niya na lang ako at hindi na siya nag salita.

Habang papunta kami sa Zebuchon, busy kaming lahat sa mga phones namin. I checked my phone at sobrang dami ng notifications ko. Twitter & Instagram. At halos dun ay tweets about kay donny. Some of his fans asked if ano ba kami talaga. O kaano ano ko ang mga Pangilinan. Inaakbayan pa rin ako ni Donny kahit hawak niya parin yung phone niya.

"Dons, sa tingin mo mag rereply ba ako sa mga fans mo?" I asked. Dapat tanongin ko muna siya bago akong sumagot.

"I think wag muna. Ako lang mag sasabi sa kanila. Basta always remember that don't mind the negative comments." He said. Napangiti naman ako sa sinabi niya.

"We're here, kids!" Tita Maricel said. Sobrang excited na si Hannah. I know this place. Sobrang ganda ng kanilang place. The designs, the foods, the staffs and everything.

Habang nag oorder si Tita Maricel, tumabi sakin si Donny and Solana.

"Ate Cali, do you also like my baby brother?" Solana asked. "Hey Solana sit here. Magkatabi tayo sabi mo sa van." Benj said. Whooops. Mabuti naman at hindi ko nasagot. Ngayon katabi ko na lang si Donny and vacant chair.

"Hey. Bakit hindi mo sinagot yung tanong ni Solana?" Donny asked.
"You know the answer naman sa tanong ni Solana." I said. His face turned red. Hahahahaha.

"Kuys? Are you okay? Ang pula mo." Benj asked. And tumingin sa amin si Tito and Tita.

"Yes. I'm fine. Let's eat na." Donny said. Ang cute niya. Kahit sa mga ganitong bagay lang ay nahuhulog ako sa kanya. Sino ba naman hindi mahuhulog sa isang Donny Pangilinan? Caring. Sweet. Protective. Kind. God fearing. Close sa family. Mama's boy and down to earth.
